    Would you as a guy\girl buy a brand new shirt (mens) for £5.00 at a car boot sale? maybe a £8 knitted mens top?

    really depends on make, quality, etc would recommend spending a couple of pounds on a "dummy" off of ebay, you get half body ones cheap enough and using that to display them - have it hanging from your boot or at the end of your rail- bought one for using for stuff for ebaying my old clothes and think it does make a difference - presentation & quality for price is everything remember!
    :think:you cant make a silk purse from a sows ear but you can try!

    For resale. I suppose there's no hard and fast rule on profit margins but was hoping for 20-40% which is reasonable... I think.

    If it was one of the most expensive brands, say stone island, and not a fake you could easy double your money. A no brand and your chucking money away.

    Look at what I had in my inbox this morning!
    "IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

    YES WE DO HAVE THE BIGGEST AND BEST BONUS
    AND
    YES THE BEST VALUE FOR MONEY SITE ON THE INTERNET

    It appears that in the last couple of weeks some comparison sites have highlighted the fact that our bonus scheme is second to none and indeed it is. I believe there is no better and that my site offers the best value in bingo. Recently we have been inundated with new members and indeed all new members are very welcome. I would recommend everyone in Britain should play bingo as it is a great game and indeed even more I would say they should all play with me in any of our clubs or here on line as we offer the best value, highest percentage payout for every pound you wager and of course as you all know the greatest winnability.


    Regrettably, some people were advised to achieve a payout by depositing and then withdrawing immediately if their winnings had not achieved the £20 minimum which left them in breach of our rules and it was happening in such numbers that it has caused me great anxiety and sleepless nights in the last few days as I felt we were under attack by fraudsters and or money launderers. I immediately changed the Payout criteria and amounts to combat the perceived problem but this in fact turned out to be some ordinary players taking bad advice and lost their bonus availability by doing what is clearly a breach of rules. Perhaps somebody should have told me I was so highly ranked on the comparison sites and then I would have worried less as it is the first time I have ever been worried about too many people joining. LOL.


    So to all of you old and new members, the deal is there for everyone to enjoy and play bingo, yes our site is UK licensed and yes we do offer a great deal and every new player gets and has always got £150 at £5 a day when they join most games have a guaranteed minimum amount so it is good to play any time of day but there can never be abuse as the limit is there and will remain as bank card charges will erode both your and my monies. Do remember when the £150 is reached you then move to 15% on all deposits so the bonus does not end. I am resetting the minimum withdrawal amount back to £20 this morning and also going back to 1 every 24 hours in line with the rest of our operation as it was only BingoBritain that was affected and I feel that £20 is a fair amount for the average player and some people find it hard to have it higher as a lot of our customers love bingo but have low budgets and as most of you know we try to do our best for all our members big and small palyers. We also have to remain within the UK Gambling Commission LCCP regulations as we are the only licensed and operating UK Bingo site and we might all not like rules but unfortunately there have to be some.


    I am sorry if you are tired reading by now but finally it is important to let you know that I run the site and Palace Bingo Clubs and my team (which is not huge) behind me are all to be found in my bingo clubs and in our Great Yarmouth Casino so we are a small company but big hearted operators and the whole company is very personal so is very different to any other site, we are real people who work in our bingo clubs every day and you can contact us by email dropping into the clubs or if for difficult matters you can speak to us on the telephone about any problem you may have and I hope you will at some stage.


    Best wishes for 2010.
